HAPPY WITH ATHEISM OR CHRISTIANITY?

Ron, I am very happy with my atheism.” That’s what he told me. My good friend is a man of 80 plus years of age and is a person whom I respect very much. He is a good man, a principled man, a morally and ethically admirable man. We were engaged in a brief e-conversation and at the start we already understood each other’s foundational positions, his being non-faith and mine being faith in Jesus Christ. Then we exchanged bio backgrounds and I was surprised to learn the extent of his childhood and youthful exposure to Christianity. He explained to me when he had stopped believing and the sense of relief he had when he decided it was not a rational world.
